I have a difficult relationship with my mother even though we talk most days and I try to make her happy. Today was the first time in a long time when we had a positive conversation in which I wasn't talking to her in monosyllables. I wanted to practice my Spanish (she's fluent and I'm semi-fluent but very rusty), so I bought a little children's book and read the first chapter to her. She was super happy and excited that we might have an "activity." And then I warmed up a bit more and showed her some sketches I did recently and she liked them. It was really a good feeling managing to connect with her over something.
